John Cleese Writing Creatively

“The general principle is this: the bigger the leap, the longer the creative period is likely to be. If you’re writing creatively, you can improve scripts hugely by making lots of smaller improvements that aren’t very creative at all.” (John Cleese, Creativity)

The creative process demands significant leaps in thinking, as highlighted by John Cleese.

While minor adjustments may enhance scripts, the larger the creative leap, the longer the period of exploration and refinement required.
